Bandai Namco, the publisher of Elden Ring, previously stated that it has confirmed in some cases problems with saving Elden Ring saves to the Steam cloud. Bandai expects that players experiencing issues will see an error message when the game starts, stating Your local save file conflicts with a file stored in the Steam Cloud. Players need to check the last save the date, then manually select which saves to keep and complete the sync.
A post on Bandai Namco’s website explains: It is recommended that you back up your local save data elsewhere in case you inadvertently overwrite your computer’s local save data with old save data left in the cloud.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you and thank you in advance for your patience as we deal with this matter.
Subsequently, an update was released for the Steam client, and the Steam cloud sync issue with Ayrden’s Circle should have been resolved. The official Twitter account of Ayrton Circle said: “Steam client update has been released, which should prevent local and cloud save data conflicts. Please update your Steam client to the latest version.
